What is an IP address?
An IP address is the number that identifies a device or network on the internet. At home, the address shown here is usually your router's public IP, shared by every device on your network. Addresses like 192.168.x.x are private IPs used only inside your home network.
Why does my IP address change?
Most home connections use a dynamic IP that can change when the router restarts. A static IP is an extra service from your provider, needed for hosting servers, cameras or remote access.
Can I hide my IP address?
With a VPN or proxy, websites see the VPN server's address instead of yours. On mobile data your address usually comes from your carrier's shared pool.
Frequently asked questions
Can someone find my home address from my IP?
No. Public IP databases only show an approximate city or region. Subscriber details are held by your internet provider and shared only through legal processes.
What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?
IPv4 is the older format of four numbers (for example 85.105.1.1). IPv6 is the newer, much longer format made of letters and digits.
